Project Overview

The City has been awarded Federal funds to assist with construction of the Autumn Ridge Path, which is a proposed multi-use path that will connect users between Milwaukee Street and Commercial Avenue north of Highway 30. The proposed path will also include a new bridge overpass of Highway 30. This project will improve safety and access for users to cross Hwy 30 to connect the neighborhoods and destinations on either side, and this project will also provide an immediate connection in the bike network as it ties the existing overpass of Stoughton Rd. (Hwy 51) at Portland Pkwy with the existing path in Sycamore Park. Long term, this project will be part of a network of facilities that connects to downtown with northeasterly limits of the City.

Based on preliminary design work, public outreach, and discussions with different agencies and committees, the preferred route for this path is through Heistand Park, through the public drainage greenway to the east and using the existing sidewalk connection to Stein Ave. (sidewalk would be widened with project). A new path would then be constructed off of Stein parallel to Thompson and along Hwy 30 to the new bridge over Hwy 30, connecting to Ziegler Rd. on the north side of Hwy 30 & Commercial Ave.
